7-12 Months High School Programs in Spain

Let Spain’s friendly atmosphere and rich blend of cultures teach you how to make the most of life. Immerse yourself in Spanish languages and cultures by living with a host family and attending a local high school. This is the best way to develop fluency in Spanish languages and customs. People live life to the fullest in Spain. But, not in a hurried way. Instead, Spaniards tend to take their time to enjoy and absorb the world and people around them. You’ll savor long, multi-course meals, wander intriguing villages, and explore charming cities. Depending on the region, locals might speak Catalan, Basque, Galician, or Valencian along with Spanish. The ethnicities and nationalities associated with these languages offer a diverse range of cultures. Still, what people in Spain tend to have in common is their affectionate nature. You’ll see that the bonds they form are strong and long-lasting. And, orientations with other AFS exchange students will allow you to make life-long connections and memories.
